<TITLE>03. Par 9-12</TITLE>L-9 And now--now tomorrow night remember and then...?... Now, if--if your prayer cards are not called, hold them. We are obligated to pray for the sick people that we give prayer cards to. So we--we're morally obligated to do that, and we'll do it by the grace of God, and everybody that we possibly can. See? That's an...?...
Now, if we was to be here several, maybe two or three weeks, why, we could just do so many and so many, we'd finally dig right through it, but if--if we are going to try not to give out too many prayer cards, but just as many as we think we have ample time to take up--take up as many through the night as we can.

L-10 Now, I was going to say something last night. This sounds strange in another city. I put my suits into a cleaners to be pressed, and I've lived out of a suitcase for about fifteen years now. And suits wrinkled up, and I had to put my two suits down to be pressed, and--and if them little ladies that paid for that press job is here, I thank you, sisters. I went in and they wouldn't let me pay for it. Said, "Two sisters was there had paid for it." And the lady said they come rubbing my suit. Now, that's real sweet. I--I appreciate that. That's real nice, but of course, their--their--that was just a suit clothes, but I trust that is something you wanted. God will honor your faith (You see?) by--by doing so. See? But it was just a suit. So, I appreciate your--your faith and belief that I'd be telling you at least...?... telling you the truth to be honest with you and thank you very kindly.
I said to the lady, "Let me give them the money."
Said, "No," Said, "No." Said, "They--they wouldn't stand for that."
So if you're here, thank you. It was the Star Cleaner down at the--the--the city where we just come from.

L-11 Now, I--I thought on tonight a subject of a testimony meeting out of the Bible, and I want to read for a text out of Saint Matthew the 14th chapter, the 27th verse.
 And straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of a good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.
Now, I want to take a subject for this testimony meeting of: "Be Not Afraid."
There's two elements that control the entire human race in the world: One of them is fear; the other is faith. Now, it's either fear or faith controls every nation, every denomination and every individual. You're either fear or faith that controls you.

L-12 Now, it must have been about the setting of the sun. The sun was going down, and the little boat had stuck on the banks because the disciples had climbed aboard, and the big, strong man which we believe to be Simon, the fisherman, well acquainted with boats, and the lake to cross... His occupation was to fish.
And now, as he begin to take his big brawny arms and back and pushing the little boat off the bank, climbed aboard and set down by the side of his brother, Andrew, and picked up his oars...
In them days their boats were either propelled by the--the oaring or blowing by sails. And I believe that sometimes the oaring, if they had a strong wind they could also run up a sail.
And they--they must've been about a crowd about like this and--on the bank waiting. Oh, I mean congested like this, but perhaps many times this many. I think there's about five thousand, and they were standing on the bank waiting. They were bidding these servants of Christ farewell.
